This clean and cozy place hidden behind a bright orange door deservedly receives rave reviews as a ‘tranquil oasis,’ despite its location on one of La Paz’s busiest roads. The friendly, English-speaking owners will do all they can do to help you. Kitchen facilities are available. Note, though, that there is a midnight curfew.
